Re: Three big reasons for DC defeat.....
by HI on May 14, 2009 10:46 AM
main reason 1.dropped catches of dilshan and devillers. 2. Teza who slowed momentun with his bating 3. ROhit sharma's continued failure.

Teja came at 4, not 3.Your point no.3 is absolutely right. Shoaib has no pace nor variation.I feel another batsman can be included.
Vaas's last over was also the reason DD got 173 instead of around 155.

DD,DC, CSK and RC. MI are without Zaheer and Rajasthan without Warne and Khan. So, both these teams have weakened bowling attacks. RCB seem to have suddenly found form after Kumble took over.

DD,Chennai, DC and MI rlikely to be in semis asrajasthan is out of form. warne is out n only 1 person Y pathan is there who has perform decently n no 1 else so probably RR will nt b in semis. punjab also hv very poor chance. if MI could win today against RR then he will b havin more chances to b in semis. for blore they wll hv 2 win against chennai anyhow to b in the queue.
Deccan's loss due to two bad decisions: 1) Not giving a ball to Rohit Sharma to bowl 2) Allowing RaviTeja a head of Rohit/Smith is a big mistake Any comments please.

Absolutely right. One more reason is Vaas's terrible last over. An experienced bowler like him getting hammered for 23 is not acceptable.

It's sad to see DC loosing this match when required to score 25 runs with 7 Wickets in hand at one point of time. Only good point here is Delhi were given a run for their money.... Gilchrist made a right statement 'We released 2 points today to Delhi'..

Gilchrist couldn't be farther from the truth.Instead of releasing the points,Rajat Bhatia snatched those points from DC.The two deliveries that got rid of Symonds and Smith were brilliant.And the future predictions carry no worth.

wat non sense .. bhatia just had his fluke .. all the batsmen who got out in his bowling were just out of their minds at that time ..

may be DD shall falter but they r winning without viru and gauti firing. if these 2 fire, there is no stopping.

Fluke my foot...both deliveries had pace variations than the normal balls and the one that got rid of symonds was right there in the block hole.Its basic cricket stuff.When the run rate is around 10 an over then going for big hits isn't equivalent to going out of the mind.Learn to appreciate other's success.'Fluke' my foot.

Of the 4 teams that actually make it to the semis, the one which had to struggle the most to get there will eventually win IPL.
DDR are peaking too early and are headed for a premature ejaculation!

Your theory speaks as much of ignorance as short-sightedness.Apply similar theory to the last 2 world cups and Australia would never have won a single tournament.
only few Indian player in ipl is performing well,except two, Raina and RP,others are inconsistent.Raina's a good player,but RP's high on luck.Anyways both are showing result,so that's good,but for purple and other cap,top slots are taken by Aussie,who called India a 3rd world nation.If he can play well,even after retiring,what's wrong with saurav ganguly,is he not playing because he's not captain of KKR.Hey saurabh,if u reading this(though sure u're not),u were never a good captain against top teams Australia,NZ,SA.It was after Dhoni became captain we started winning overseas,like last year in Oz,this year in NZ.Yea we lost against Pakistan somewhere in Bdesh,but Pakistan is not even in top 4.So the real challenge is defeating top 3 on rankings,not those teams who're at bottom 3.Your century alaways came against low ranking countries,but India,being impartial,led you have your captaincy maintained for long time. I judged you only once,during 2003 wc.where I came to notice that all ur centuries came against kenya and teams of that caliber.Even our tailenders could have snatched win against those teams.This IPL's the platform to show u were worth being kept in the team,and not something as a burden.But you proved my assumptions were right,and you are nothing more than a selfish cricketer playing for self,or I am not hesitating to go to say,u r the only selfish Indian player,except md. kaif,who just thought of getting spot in team,just not to be kicked out.less space,sorry......

Too long and too boring and on top of that facts are incorrect too. What you started to say and where you went. And for god's sake leave Saurav alone. He may be what he is today but learn to respect your past which was highly praiseworthy.
